Students taking intersession classes may request to include the cost of the intersession classes into the total cost of attendance for financial aid purposes.
However most students are already receiving the maximum amount of federal loans during the regular semesters and would have to request additional funds in private loans or Grad PLUS loans.
Example:
- Fall 11/Spring 12 fulltime cost of attendance
(including living expenses) = $57,443 - Maximum federal direct stafford loans = $20,500
- Maximum Grad PLUS = $36,943
- Include 2 hour Fall 11 intersession class, Tuition = $2996
- Total tuition (Fall 11 intersession/Fall 11 regular/Spring 12) = $60,439
- Maximum federal direct stafford loans = $20,500
- Maximum Grad PLUS = $39,939
To include the intersession class into your cost of attendance, after registering for the class, notify the Financial Aid Office.
If you have any questions, please stop by or call our office.
